Alcatraz “Garrett Stillman; Tommy Madsen” Review

Alcatraz returned for possibly the very last time tonight with “Garrett Stillman; Tommy Madsen”. WithAlcatraz‘s ratings dipping even lower than the already cancelled Terra Nova, things definitely don’t lookgood for Soto and Madsen and company. It’s up to the final two episodes of the season to go out with a bang, and give us some possible closure if the series isn’t picked up for renewal.

“Garrett Stillman” started out with the triumphant return of Dr. Lucy. It’s still a little frustrating how in the dark Soto and Madsen are always kept, as they had no idea until last episode that she was a 63, and now Hauser doesn’t even see fit to let them know that she’s woken up! Are you kidding me? It’s one thing to be secretive, but to not tell the people who were there when she was shot is just a jerk move. It didn’t even make sense to keep it a secret! It was a nice scene from Lucy as she recounted what it was like to “Jump”, and how the thing she missed the most is the people from 1963. It was clear that she was talking about Houser, and it really makes you realize how strange it would be to jump 50 years into the future and try to resume a relationship with somebody who has changed so dramatically.
